Yeah, I think SWP definitely made him better disposed towards City. He also seems to accept that he has Arsenal bias, but it doesn't seem to be used to belittle others.

I think some of it is that he arrived at the top quite late on - I think he was about 25 when he first played in the top division and it was several more years before he went to Arsenal. He did a couple of documentaries and that seemed to make him realise that didn't have to be the poor pundit that he started as.

lest we forget..we also gave BWP his start in the game...

The piss soaked wino is morphing in to Brazil

Thought he was much better last night than his previous game. Waxing lyrical about our movement, Foden & KDB's brilliance, etc.

I agree, I thought he was fine yesterday.

The Arsenal match was the exception from what I've heard of him.

"Marcus Rashford is World Class. Phil Foden isn't..."

 

[Protein Junkie]

Phil should have said "The League Cup? Whoopi doo. I've won 4 of those plus 4 Premier League titles and an FA Cup with City and I'm still only 22."

Is that the “ World Cup winning player of the tournament” Phil Foden ?

BWP, forgot about him to be honest!
looking back I do remember a pre season friendly against Olympiacos the summer SWP went to Chelsea when Bradley got 2 goals(I think?) thinking he could maybe do the business for us! Didn't really happen did it? he did okay in lower divisions and in the MSL though.
Funnily enough that day a bloke called Ya Ya something? Scored for them, never heard of him at the time, but he did okay for us in years to come Didn't he!

And how many mentions did the Rags get from the commentators. I would have counted but I had the mute firmly taped down and the batteries removed in case Mrs Ewing wanted to listen to that sweet North Lanarkshire accent!

Thought they were dreadful especially Sam Matterface. Totally bizarre references to "Manchester United" throughout shoehorning in references about former youth players etc. Why can't we just get commentary and factual analysis of the match? We don't want to listen to two people chatting to each other. It was much better when one commentator was used to cover matches.

Nice to see the Rags game get coverage from 1900hrs tonight,is it Emmerdale that's been pushed aside?
